Manafort sues Mueller, Justice Department

President Trump's former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, has filed a lawsuit challenging the authority of special counsel Robert Mueller.
In a court filing, lawyers for Manafort argue that the order establishing Mueller's investigation is overly broad and not permitted under Justice Department regulations.
“The investigation of Mr. Manafort is completely unmoored from the Special Counsel’s original jurisdiction to investigate ‘any links and/or coordination between the Russian government and individuals associated with the campaign of President Donald Trump,’” the complaint reads. “It has instead focused on unrelated, decade-old business dealings — specifically, Ukraine political campaign consulting activities of Mr. Manafort.”

This does not sound like the conduct of a man selling out Donald Trump.

Why would you sue the man who was helping you roll over on your boss for 8 weeks?
This Russian collusion gets weirder and weirder.

From Rosenstein's appointment:
Essentially Manafort is saying "yes I committed the crimes, but you shouldn't have been able to find out." Not the direction I'd take.
quote:
(b) The Special Counsel is authorized to conduct the investigation confinned by then-FBI Director James 8. Corney in testimony before the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence on March 20, 2017, including: (i) any links and/or coordination bet ween the Russian government and individuals associated with the campaign of President Donald Trump; and
(ii) any matters that arose or may arise directly from the investigation; and
(iii) any other matters within the scope of 28 C.F.R. § 600.4(a).
(c) If the Special Counsel believes it is necessary and appropriate, the Special Counsel is authorized to prosecute federal crimes arising from the investigation of these matters.

Like I said in the other thread about this... It's going to be great learning about the reasons sessions recused himself.
And Flynn probably has some great -I'm flipping hard, please don't prosecute my son - Intel about manafort.

Shouldn’t he be suing the Justice Department or the U.S. Government?
